Also, I'm pretty sure Yoshie said way back in 2.0 land that he will do everything he can to prevent nerfs from happening, and if you look back at class changes, very few nerfs have come to jobs. Most of the changes have been buffs.
They'd be getting hit by the same attacks if they were on monk and dragoon. I don't know why people think a specific job has anything to do with someone failing to address fight mechanics.

And yeah, Yoshida did say that, and then blm and bard were subsequently nerfed in 2.1 (part of blm's was a scathe nerf because it was too strong in frontlines...because that means it needs to be nerfed in pve too!). BLM has been buffed since, but the point is that there is precedence for job nerfing. Hopefully DRG will get the buff it deserves and that will be the end of it, but people are right to be concerned.
